Most of us riders have had to deal with some sort of mechanical issue while on a trip, the problem is having the correct tools and part readily available. During my last trip the the Oregon dunes I wrecked coming down the side of a dune, it wasn’t bad but it did mess up my fuel line and twist throttle. I was able to cut my fuel line down about half an inch and place it back on with only a little loss in fuel. The twist throttle was another problem, I managed to get sand all inside of the cables and no matter how many times I took it apart and cleaned it out, it still was sticky. If I only had some spray cleaner and some compressed air I would have been able to get it back in full working condition.
